A sparkling faith-based private elementary school has opened its doors in Jacksonville, Fla. The front elevation of the Arlington Community Academy features a bright blue splash of color that creates an iconic, welcoming appearance. Forming the blue splash is approximately 3,000 sq. ft. of Petersen’s Precision Series HWP wall panels front-and-center on the building.

Soaring 210 feet over a latticework of bayside runways, the new air traffic control tower at San Francisco International Airport (SFO) was designed by Fentress Architects in the shape of a sleek, swirling beacon of metal and glass. A central highlight of the tower’s design is a unitized curtain wall, illuminated by a backlit glass façade, and accentuated by a framing system finished with Duranar Sunstorm XL Silver coating by PPG.

The new Saia LTL Freight facility in St. Peters, MO, was designed with company branding in mind. The colors and products chosen, including metal roofing from McElroy Metal, were a true team decision.

Changes to the venerable University of Notre Dame Stadium do not come often. Built in 1930, major improvements to the house that Rockne built last came in 1999. That changed after the conclusion of the 2016 football season when a major facilities expansion and renovation project began. Along with new construction, the stadium's locker rooms were upgraded. The renovation plan incorporated RHEINZINK-Classic bright-rolled zinc from RHEINZINK America.

In today’s hyper-competitive commercial real estate market, there's no shortage of properties for prospective tenants to choose from. The owners of Airport Square 13 in Linthicum Heights, MD, were well aware of this when they decided to move forward with the renovation of their 30-year-old building. To help transform the four-story structure into a viable lease option with strong curb appeal, the architect they hired covered the exterior with Dri-Design rainscreen metal wall panels.

The 262-foot Limmat Tower is regarded as the centerpiece of one of Dietikon, Switzerland’s newer districts, Limmatfeld. At its impressive height, the structure towers high above the district, making it Rapidplatz square’s most recognizable feature. The aluminum composite material used on the building’s exterior façade features coatings from Beckers.

With a view of the Great Lake that shares its name, Erie Brewing is a 19,310 sq. ft. brewery and pub that was built with Continuous Beam framing from Varco Pruden Buildings.

Home to Starbucks, many regard Seattle, Washington as the coffee capital of the United States. But Denver residents like their coffee too. The Mile-High City is home to 70 Starbucks locations, with one of the latest opening at Tower Rd. and 67th Avenue. Incorporated into the exterior design of the new store are Omega-Lite aluminum composite metal wall panels from Laminators Inc.

When JB Autosports Inc. needed a new headquarters, the company turned to NCI Building Systems Inc. for a comprehensive metal enclosure system that offers the best in aesthetics, performance and value. Integral to the solution was insulated metal panel systems from Metl-Span.

Previously standing as the oldest building on the York Tech campus in Rock Hill, South Carolina, the C-Building was renovated at a cost of roughly $3 million and represents the first great step toward the remaining 120-acre campus’s renovations. In order to provide the façade with a dynamic look without breaking the bank, the architect specified CENTRIA’s Intercept Entyre modular metal panel system to equip the building with smooth expanses and sharp angles for varied and unique sightlines.

The new IMG Performance & Sport Science Center is the capstone building of IMG Academy’s world-class athletic training facilities in Bradenton, Fla. Founded in 1978 by legendary tennis coach Nick Bolliettieri, IMG Academy is now internationally recognized as a premier multi-sport training and educational destination for amateur and professional athletes alike. PAC-CLAD metal panels by Petersen are featured on the facility.

Soaring above Brooklyn’s thriving Fort Greene neighborhood, BAM South is a monument to the growing design possibilities associated with metal architecture and sophisticated design and modeling software. Designed by Enrique Norten of TEN Arquitectos, the 32-story structure features Reynobond aluminum composite material (ACM) panels by Alcoa Architectural Products (now Arconic Architectural Products) fabricated into pans and finished with Duranar XL fluoropolymer coatings by PPG.

The new Roxboro Lift Station in Calgary, Alberta, Canada is built to withstand a once-in-a-century flood. But function wasn't the sole criteria in its design. It looks good too, blending in and standing out, thanks primarily to the use of cladding products from Kingspan Insulated Panels.

Sam’s Tavern, located on Pike Street in Seattle’s South Lake Union neighborhood, is said to serve not only the best Bloody Mary in the city, but according to USA Today, one of the best in the entire country! As with any acclaimed bar or restaurant, seating at Sam’s can sometimes be hard to come by. To help boost capacity and provide the best possible experience for customers, the pub has a patio seating area that can be used rain or shine, thanks to the incorporation of glass-clad hydraulic doors from Schweiss Doors.

Though indiscernible from a distance, a closer look reveals something rather unique about the perforated panels that cover portions of the Roger A. and Helen B. Krone Engineered Biosystems Building at Georgia Tech University in Atlanta. The panels, manufactured by Morin, a Kingspan Group Company, feature not one, but two different hole sizes. The unusual pattern was the result of meticulous attention to detail on the part of the building’s design team and equally precise fabrication by the manufacturer.

Adaptive reuse serves as a way to ensure the integrity of an otherwise unused or even condemned structure. The recently completed residential building, The Lucas, in Boston, MA, transformed a former 19th century German Trinity Catholic Church into 33 contemporary livable spaces. The project features metal cladding fabricated by CEI Materials.

Insulated metal wall panels offer a range of benefits that include energy efficiency, aesthetics and durability. Those qualities and more factored into the decision to utilize them for the construction of the Boeing Delivery Center in Charleston, SC. The building was completed in 2016 and features insulated metal wall panels and other cladding products from CENTRIA, finished with premium Fluropon® Classic paints from Sherwin-Williams.

Dri-Design Perforated Panels with custom painting created the trademark lion symbol for the Orlando City Soccer Club at its new stadium, the Orlando City Stadium in Orlando, FL. It was for many reasons that the perforated panels were the ideal choice for the scoreboard that displays the Lion Nation Pride.

Located in Elizabethtown, PA, the new Elizabethtown Brethren In Christ Church was expanded by Arthur Funk & Sons Inc. Construction Services of Lebanon, PA, an Authorized VP Builder. The project, which included a worship and welcome area and offices, utilized Varco Pruden Buildings' Rigid Frame system.

Land Remediation Inc. of Waterford, NY is a full-service environmental remediation company, offering a wide range of environmental construction services to industrial, commercial and residential clients. Like the work it performs, Land Remediation wanted its new office facility to be practical, which means long-lasting and efficient. Those qualities describe perfectly the Metl-Span insulated metal panels selected for the project.
